Ha Chang-Rae is a 31-year-old central defender at Daejeon Citizen, rated 19 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 101st of 148 in the K League 1. A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (23.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.56 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Chang-Rae.
Judged on this season alone, Chang-Rae graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 27th of 31 of the 31 centre-backs in the K League 1, on 2 clean sheets and 2.556 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 21 → 7). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 20th of 31 of the 31 centre-backs in the K League 1. At 31 Chang-Rae is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 5.8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 6) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
With a Rating of 19, Chang-Rae carries the 20th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the K League 1 of 31 — though on just 24 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.56 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~13), then tapers with age. At 31, Chang-Rae sits on 5.8, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Chang-Rae's projected Rating — 19 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
